Antelope on the Run.

On the plains there was. and i. no
prettcr spectacle than antelope. They
run. They wheel and gaze curiously at
you. They stamp their forefeet in rage.
They bark doSlike. They wheel and run
as though under command of officers.
Single bucks stand sentinel like on hills
or hover near the small herds that still
frequent the old feeding grounds. All of
them act as though they were uncon-
trolled, except by fear, But after the an
imals have been closely observed for many
days il is seen that their movements are
almost always the result of intelligent ac-
ton on the part Of the bucks which con-
troll the herd. The leader of all herds of
the deer family are intelligent females.
A doe is invariably the leader of a herd of
deer or antelope, and COW always leads
a band of elk. She selects the feeding
ground. She chooses the trail to be
Travelled. She starts mt the approach Of
danger and cuts out the pace Of the run
ming. The bucks and bulls bring up the
rear. This female leadership arose, prob
ably. from the fact that the females, the
mothers, would not, except In case Of I'M
minent danger, run faster than the
calves or fawns could follow. There was
another reason. The attacks Of carniv-
orous animals, which followed by scent,
almost always came from the rear, and
the heavily antlered bulls and bucks re-
manned in the rear, because there was
where the danger was greatest.

Tn q West African village.

One product. however, this parched
soil Yields in inexhaustible abundance,
and that is dust. In every street, in
every square it lies piled ankle deep,
ready for the use Of any wind that may
arise. The first gust that siirs this min.
iature Sahara ushers in a scene beyond
the power Of words to describe. Wagons
and oxen loom through the driving storm
dim and spectral as Nightmares. Ladies
hold down their wells or the curtains Of
their litters with the grasp Of desperation.
Foot passengers come charging blindly
past with lowered heads, pressing
shadowy hands TO half seen faces, while
here and there and everywhere the view
less tormentor leaps and dances like o
mocking demon. meeting you at every
turn with scientific roundhand whirl
which sends the hot, prickly dust tingling
through every fold Of your clothing,

Curious Statistical Record.

One Of the most curious statistical
records recently completed is that of DIR.
Saizmann. Of Essling, in Wurtemberg.
He found. ON going over the ancient
records Of Essling, that in the Sixteenth
century the average duration Of life
among the physicians was 36.5 years; in
the Seventeenth, 4J.s; in the Eighteenth,
ass, while at the present time the physi-
clans of Wurtemberg reach the very fa-
vorable average Of 5G.7 years 1t would
appear that this very great increase in
longevity was due TO the disappearance
of the pest and the great diminution In
the number of typhus epidemics. The
black death or black pest Of the Four
teenth century, decimated the practi-
tioners of that epoch. Guy de Chauliac
suffered from II twice and recovered;
Chalin de Vinario succumbed. Chicago

A singuiarIy Cruel Sport.

A singularly cruel sport, called ''goat, I"
is affected by the Afghan cavalry. ac-
cording TO a correspondent with the AZ
CHAN boundary commission. who writes:
1T consists Of one man seizing a goat
and riding off with it, followed by all the
rest, who try to get hold Of the unfortu-
nate animal. and tear off as big piece as
they can. This continues until the goat
is torn TO pieces, and the man who has
obtained the largest portion wins the
game. The game is played for certain
stated time. and the man who has the
goat at the moment time is called is the
winner. The way the men playing Use
their whips ON each other and on their
own and their advcrsaries horses is a
caution. The game, as usually played,
must be very cruel one, as the goat is
seized while alive, but at Shadian the
pour beast was killed beforehand-a
much more merciful proceeding. The
man who carries the goat has bad time
81 it, and it Is not an easy matter to hold
il on the saddle by putting the hind legs
under one thigh and going Oft at gal.

A Portrait Of Henry Clay.

Mr.. Clay was tall and broad shouldered,
without being bulky or feshy, and when
at all excited was of stately and command
ing presence. Though his long limbs
were loosely put together, yet his manner
was neither awkward nor uncouth, nor
even embarrassed; on the contrary, 1t
was easy and natural, and wholly unpre-
tentious-it was the easy, nonchalant air
Of man accustomed to the ways Of the
world, and conscious that he was at least
the peer of the foremost in every crowd
in which he happened to be. Indeed, my
own opinion is that hs was never in the
slightest degree, even in his early youth,
awed by the presence of any one; he
never seemed TO feel. and my belief is he
never felt, that he was ever at any time
in the presence Of any one superior to
himself. And, therefore, he was not only
strikingly at ease, but at home. wherever
he was. whether among his neighbors or
strangers, whether at o social gathering
or at the bar, or ~ the speaker Of the
house of representatives, or on the floor
of the senate; and, in my judgment, he
would have felt equally at home at con-
ference with kings and emperors.
He seemed to have not only an instinc-
tive consciousness Of his own strength.
but of his own special capacity for leader
ship. Therefore, he would take the lead
to himself as if unconsciously. whatever
the occasion. and as naturally and as
gracefully as if it were his birthright;
and few there were, il any, who ever
seemed to be surprised that he had taken
the place for which nature seemed to have
designed him. Indeed. without any ap-
pearance of self-assertion on his part, and
as if unconsciously to himself, there was
a something in his presence and lIis man.
ner that gave to him an authoritative
air, and made him for the time the CEN
trail, the commanding figure Of the group
about him.-The Century.

BRAIN MuTllATIoN IN FISH.
Inter esting Results OF an Experiments
Facts which Seem to Upset Theories.

Int, esting Results Of an Experiment.
Facts which Seem to Upset Theories
NJ. Vulpian recently communicated to
the French academy the interesting re-
suits Of an experiment on brain mutila-
ton in a fish. The cerebral lobes were
removed from a carp on March 1S last,
and the fish was under daily observa-
ton up to Sept. 20, when it died from
causes believed by the author to be
wholly unconnected with the brain in
jury. During all this time its move
ments and respirations were normal, not
differing from those Of its uninjured fel-
lows. In fact, two months after the op-
Grafton, NJ. Vulpian could not perceive
any difference in its movements and be-
havior from those of healthy fishes.
Its sight was in no wise impaired. It
saw and avoided obstacles. and readily
recognized the yellow and white frag-
ments of boiled egg on the bottom Of
the aquarium. 1t struggled actively
with its fellows to obtain the small
particles of food thrown into the water.
seeing them from distance and follow.
ing them as they fell. At the approach
of the one feeding the fishes it would
swim from the opposite side Of the
aquarium, manifesting no impairment
of intelligence. Its sense of taste was
preserved, as shown by its rejecting
non-alimentary substances accidentally
taken into its mouth. The sense of
smell only was destroyed, owing to The
section of the olfactory processes; other
wise it seemed to retain all the senses,
and the intellectual and instructive fac
ulties of the normal healthy fish.
Upon examination the cerebral lobes
and pineal gland were found to be en-
tirely wanting, but the rest Of the brain
was intact Although nearly six months
had elapsed since the operation, there
was no indication Of the regeneration Of
the lobes. The opening in the Uranium
closed up in about two months, and, had
the fish lived month or two longer, the
author was certain that the walls would
have been wholly ossified. The expert
ment shows that the instinct and the
will-faculties which all higher animals
seem to have located in the cerebrum-
are capacle Of their full manifestation in
the fish after its complete ablation.-

Political Study for Girls.

A young Brahmin, visiting Eng
land, expressed his astonishment at
her advanced civilization. "Why is
it," he inquired of an enlightened
Englishman, "that India has stood
still these last eight or ten centuries,
while England has made such as
founding progress" His companion
gave him resume of the underlying
causes of modern civilization, and con-
cluded as follows: "In addition, your
women are children even to old age,
and do not stimulate men, but hold
them back. But the women of the
Occident are learning to keep step
with men in scientific pursuits, a
knowledge of art, and study of social
problems; and this is a stimulant to
men to 60 farther" If the partial ed
ucation of women has been productive
of such good results, how much might
be hoped for if women shared with
men every opportunity for growth,
and every incentive to noble achieve
ment!
Let our young girls be encouraged
to acquaint themselves with the great
questions that engage the attention of
our Government, and especially with
those that are discussed in congresses,
legislatures and by the leading papers
of the time. Let them know what are
the social and educational movements
of the day, and what is their bearing
on the future of the nation. Great
moral principles underlie them all.
Talk with them about the wrongs that
should be righted, the great reforms
that are battling with injustice, the
needed legislation that is pending and
slowly progressing. These matters
can be made as interesting to them as
Greek literature or Roman history, as
fascinating as the everlasting novel.
Brief political monographs, terse, clear
and compact are prepared by special
lists and college professors for the in
struction of our legal voters. Let
these enter into the studies of their
sisters, who will find some knowledge
of the great problems with which a
nation wrestles as powerful a tonic
mentally, as are physically the out
door games they share with their
brothers. MARY A. LIvERMoRE.
